Warm and helpful staff, clean and comfortable room.
This hotel and the staff are amazing!! The hotel itself is beautiful and the amenities are wonderful. The staff was top notch, they went above and beyond to make our stay feel special. Highly recommend booking at Torel, we will be back on our next trip to Porto!
Wonderful experience! Restaurant on site was amazing! Staff very friendly and gave great recommendations. Will definitely return and recommend to others.
Great location, very walkable to sites around Porto. The rooms were very clean and comfortable. Great little bar and restaurant in the hotel itself. Would stay again next time I’m in Porto.
We loved our room with the gorgeous big tub overlooking the river. Too bad it was raining but we still had a great time! Staff was very helpful and friendly.
The property is beautiful and modern. We loved the artful decor in our room the Nicolas Tesla. It would have been an even more epic experience with two comfortable chairs in the room. I will recommend this property to friends and relatives who plan to travel to Porto next May.

Liked: Cleanliness
The hotel, along with its staff were excellent. The housekeeping team were pleasant and friendly. Nothing was too much. Although we didn’t use the swimming pool facility due to weather, it was beautifully presented and well kept.
We really enjoyed our stay at this cute boutique hotel.
We were close to the city center, a lot of the places were walkable distances.
Parking was on-site(we had to reserve a spot in advance).
Breakfast buffet was really good.
Service and staff were really friendly.
We loved our stay and would definitely stay here again.
